520	2		_a"Domestic and international health activism and health policy are focal points in this volume of the National Political Science Review series, a publication of the National Conference of Black Political Scientists. Challenging the Legacies of Racial Resentment demonstrates the continuing importance of the 'medical civil rights movement,' through examples of activism of women of color in AIDS service organizations, around their health issues, and in the struggle for racial equity in health care in Brazil. This volume also examines the marked rise in American racial tensions during the Obama administration. Spikes in police and vigilante violence, as well as fear of a reversion to re-segregated schools have brought a new urgency to black political activism. Contributions to this volume explore the effect of race on American attitudes toward immigration policy and reform, black state legislators and American morality politics, the historically disproportionate influence of Southern whites in American politics, and the undermining of school desegregation laws with contemporary 'nullification' strategies. The volume's 'Trends' section, features conversations on the #BlackLivesMatter movement in Los Angeles, the 2016 presidential election, and examines the teaching of the Trayvon Martin story at the University of California, Irvine. The volume also includes a diverse selection of book reviews"--Provided by publisher.
